Samael Ozriel wields a bone dagger, made from the femur bone of an Imperial agent and his skin. The handle is wrapped in human leather, dyed black with leather straps at the pommel and hilt. The blade has been dyed dark red from blood over heavy use from both Samael and the previous owner, Kah Manet. The blade is razor sharp and seven inches in length, coming to a pronged point. On one of the straps a tooth is tied in leather with a black feather following it. Samael earned the dagger in a duel with Kah Manet, hoping to kill the Gungan and taste his blood during one of his murderous sprees in his younger days. He failed to do so, allowing the Gungan to retreat and abandon the weapon.
Since becoming the Krath’s favored weapon, the blade has been alchemically treated to be able to withstand strikes from vibroswords as well as leaving trace amounts of poison in the wound. The dagger is cold to the touch, partly from Kah purging his emotions with its creation and partly because Samael Ozriel has corrupted it into a weapon of terror and insanity. It has been utilized in the torture and slaughter of over 53 innocent civilians in the galaxy in the last twelve years, each time absorbing residual darkness from the terror of his victims. Samael believes it increases his abilities to inflict Terror and control others, but that could just be one of many lies told by the psychotic necromancer.

BAW E-5 blaster, Magik's weapon of choice. The blaster never leaves his side. Carried at the hip, the blaster is suitable for righties or lefties. Concealed under a robe the blaster goes unoticed. While giving Magik the quick action protection he needs in any situation. The BAW E-5 is very light, although it can be larger than most blasters. The blaster is wrapped with a very strong and resistant metal, giving the blaster a polished finish. The polished metal is only accented by a black carbon. Combining the two makes this piece one of a kind, resistant to anything thrown at it. Making the BAW E-5 durable and useful.
Equiped with a pistol grip and a barrell grip, the blaster is very manuverable. Great for close quarter combat, as well as long range shooting. The blaster can either be gripped at the pistol grip with one hand or at the pistol grip and barrel grip with both hands. Making the blaster one hand operable, but firing with both hands would be ideal. The elongated barrell is round in cylindrical shape from the pistol grip all the way through the barrell. Giving the blaster a more technological look and feel. The trigger is located on the pistol grip just below the barrell. Atop the barrell the BAW does come equipped with sights for long and close range firing.
All in all the BAW E-5 blaster is the perfect weapon for any Sith. Easily concealable, while packing capable fire power for any occassion. One or two hand operations, comfotable grips, sights and powerful blaster bolts are all very reliable in combat. Magik would not enter the battlefield with a blaster on his hip. The BAW E-5 is the blaster of choice for Magik.
